UBIT Leadership and Organization

UBIT refers to the holism of all computing and
information technology at UB. UB’s IT organization is
an amalgam of one central, enterprise organization, CIT, and many
school or division-level IT organizations, sometimes referred to as
"distributed IT” which are devoted to the IT needs of their
unit.

Computing and Information Technology (CIT), the enterprise
organization, is responsible for building and supporting the
foundational IT services and infrastructure for the university,
including, for example, the university network, student information
systems (the HUB), UBlearns, MyUB, research computing and
university financial systems.

Distributed IT units (Nodes) are affiliated with various
Colleges and Schools and Administrative units throughout the
university. CIT and the Nodes collaborate closely to seamlessly
provide IT resources and services throughout the university.
